By working at Harvard University, you join a vibrant community that advances Harvard's world‑changing mission in meaningful ways, inspires innovation and collaboration, and builds skills and expertise. We are dedicated to creating a diverse and welcoming environment where everyone can thrive.

Harvard University Health Services (HUHS), part of University Central Administration (CADM), is the on‑site multi‑specialty medical practice and health administration for the Harvard community. It provides care to students, faculty, staff, eligible post‑docs, retirees, and their dependents. HUHS also manages two university‑owned health plans, HUGHP and SHIP, and collaborates with other departments to address public health needs.

Harvard University has the largest intercollegiate athletic department in the country with 42 varsity sports and approximately 1,200 varsity student‑athletes. Harvard has long valued the lessons taught by athletic participation: the pursuit of excellence through personal development and teamwork, ethical and responsible behavior on and off the field, adherence to the spirit of rules as well as to their letter, leadership and strength of character, acceptance of victory with humility and acknowledgement of defeat with grace.

In addition, Harvard Athletics believes in building community through the engagement of students, faculty, staff, and alumni and creates an environment in which neighboring communities can enjoy the Harvard experience.
